Certified seed is the foundation of a good maize crop. Counterfeit seed — repackaged grain sold as hybrid — is a serious problem that costs farmers entire seasons.
How to identify genuine certified seed
- Sealed, branded packaging with a lot number and expiry date
- KEPHIS certification tag inside the bag
- Buy only from licensed agro-dealers or authorised retailers
